Shelton High School IS State Supt. of Public Louis Bruno this week the official announcement the amount of cutback in state IPort funds which school would have to absorb in budget expenditures $6 per pupil. (Districts were tted earlier to expect a cut $5 - $7.) "In order to stay within the appropriation authorized the legislature for operating Schools this 1970-71 fiscal r, we now find it necessary to their operating funds by Per pupil. This means that of $371 basic support per the school year 1970-71, $365. "We are watching very closely ~economic situation of the state should enrollments continue than anticipated and the 1 per cent real estate tax revenue decline further, we may have to reduce the more. "We realize this cut in state )Port poses an almost ~hic situation for school which have contracted Personnel and services. "By late spring we should be able to reassess the economic situation and if there is money available, we will restore funds to school districts, even if it is only 50 cents, 75 cents or $I per pupil." The decision regarding cutbacks in the per pupil support figure was based on these facts, Bruno said: 1. Enrollments are higher than anticipated. As of Nov. 1, the school enrollment is 787,801 which would indicate an annual average of 785,040. This is, on the annual average, about 4,000 pupils more than projected. 2. The dropout rate between Oct. and Nov. is less than the rate for the same period for the past several years. People appear not to be leaving the state in the numbers expected. 3. The income from the 1 per cent real estate tax has dropped in a greater amount than the State Dept. of Revenue predicted. 4. The combination of higher enrollments and lower tax revenues requires the use of more state dollars to maintain the per pupil guarantee. M.
